Did 65 miles on my own in the wind yesterday. Was a good ride, but my neck is a little sore today, I really need to get a helmet without a peak, save me straining my neck on the road bike. The two bridges (Kincardine and Forth) is a great ride, even when the weather isn’t all that great.

If you’re feeling a bit down about the whole winter thing, and using it as an excuse to not go outside, see this list on the Howies website for reasons why winter is so good. Number 10 is similar to my reason for enjoying the wind and the rain. :o)
